Mild Thai curry with a nice flavour. This is our family's favourite slow cooker recipe. Easy to make.

Whether they're barbecued, tossed through spaghetti, popped in a curry, dipped in sauce or cooked in a risotto, there's nothing better than a plate of juicy prawns that can be whipped up in minutes.

This is a golden oldie, tried and tested many times over. It's delicious.

Moist muffins that keep and freeze well.

Delicious layers of eggplant, tomato and cheese that melt in the mouth. Even my anti-eggplant husband eats it.

Open the curtains, rope in the little helpers and whip up an extra special breakfast in bed this Mother's Day. Pancakes, pikelets, eggs and French toast are all on the menu and it's all paired to perfection with plenty of tea, juice, coffee and hot chocolate. No matter her preferences, or your cooking skills, this collection of our favourite breakfast recipes will see you through the day and leave mum feeling extra special.

Because more sparkles = more excellent.
